indicates that it is possible for the property to comply with setbacks when it is ultimately <br /> developed; however, the exact placement of the building on Lot 2 will be determined by a <br /> future Master PUD review. <br /> C. Density—Meets Requirements: <br /> The maximum density for housing in the B-2 District is 20 units per acre. With the <br /> proposed subdivision, Lot 1 would be 5.985 acres in size, which would allow up to 120 <br /> units. The proposal is for 120 units. <br /> Section 1325— General Regulations <br /> A. Landscaping and Tree Preservation- Section 1325.05 Subd. 1 and 1325.055 <br /> Caliper Inches Required—Exceeds requirements <br /> A Landscaping Plan submitted by the applicant is included in Attachment F. Based on <br /> the square footage of the proposed buildings the City Code requires 325 caliper inches of <br /> trees to be located on site; however, existing and preserved trees on the site are permitted <br /> to count towards this requirement. There are currently 490 caliper inches of trees on site. <br /> In addition,the applicant is proposing to plant an additional 47 caliper inches of trees on <br /> site. No trees are proposed to be removed at this time; however, it is likely that trees will <br /> need to be removed with the development of Lot 2. The specific tree replacement <br /> requirements will be calculated with the application for the development of Lot 2. <br /> Trees along Street Frontage—Exceeds requirements <br /> City Code requires that a minimum of one tree be planted along the right of way for <br /> every 40 feet of street frontage. Lot 1 has 580 feet of frontage, which would require 14 <br /> trees along the street. The plan proposes 14 street trees with an additional 13 to be <br /> planted elsewhere on site. Additional street trees will be required with the development <br /> of Lot 2. <br /> Perennials and Shrubberies— Cannot be determined by submitted plans <br /> City Code requires that at least ten percent of the total landscaped area shall be covered <br /> with perennials and/or shrubbery. For this particular project,the Code requires 7,860 <br /> square feet of perennials and shrubbery. On the applicant's submitted plans 8,571 square <br /> feet are proposed; however, it is not clear if these will be new plantings or if the applicant <br /> is suggesting that existing perennial planting beds meet this requirement. Staff has <br /> reviewed the existing planting beds and has found that many of the perennial areas <br /> City of Arden Hills <br /> Planning Commission Special Meeting for April 18, 2012 <br /> P:Wlanning0anning Cases12012U2-009-1201 County Road E-PUD and Plat(Pending)W-18-12-PC Report-1201 County Road E. <br /> PUD.docx <br /> Page 5 of 16 <br />
